In Reply to: Get ready for a real treat... posted by Victor Khomenko on August 02, 1999 at 13:06:41:
Not my cup of tea, but once again, when Gene and Roger agree I have to check it out. I watched it late, and became very uncomfortable at how provocative it was, hoping the wife wouldn't pop in on me...Afterwards...stunned! So how do I tell my prim and proper Quaker wife that this is a must-see film...how do I get her to sit thru it. Victor, you know what I mean. I wish I could say more--but for those who haven't seen it yet....

Victor.
Please tell us more about what you saw.
...do I have to go on...I don't want to give it away for those who havent seen it...or am I completely off base? Don't tease me Victor. I don't get much sleep with raising these 1 and 3 year-olds and I could easily go nuts right here on line.Isn't that the film? Or did that really happen to me?
No, but your mistake is understadable. There are two movies that I know of with the same title. The one you mentioned is probably the 1995 soft-core flick. How was it?I meant the other Forbidden Games: the 1951 (I believe) movie by Rene Clement starring the five-year-old Brigitte Fossey in an unbelievably good performance. She plays the girl who lost both parents in bombing and find refuge with farmer family. An incredibly fine and subtle movie, easily the best movie that I saw in the last year or more - and I have seem many.
If you get a chance to see it, watch for that look on her face as she sees the priest's cross... She is simply stunning. The boy who plays opposite of her is also very, very good, but she simply dominates. Kudos to the director for such perl.
I am going to rent some of her later movies and will let you know if they make the passing grade - according to the book they were not too good, but I am quite curious as far as what have become of her. She is probably in her late forties now.
Rent it, I am sure your wife will love it too.
Regards,
Victor.
can I let the wife see it?you guys are too good for me. Are you looking in the movie guide? How can you remember all that stuff?
Personally, I don't have many movie guide books. But I grew up immersed in the movie world of Los Angeles and have a modest film library of 1600 laserdiscs, 800 videotapes, and 100 DVDs.
Next you are going to tell us you own more than 5 CD's.At least tell us you are watching those movies on a 17" B&W with rotary selector... have mercy...
